As far as I know, WoW has not been discontinued...most companies continue to market their products.

I saw one with Verne Troyer.  LOL of course hes a fricken Gnome.  God i hate Gnomes.  Mr. T  should have been Horde man, its just not right to see Mr T as a Night Elf....... Is shatner a Alliance as well?

They know they can't fail with Mr. T!

I don't even like Snickers, but after seeing the advert with Mr. T in it I wanted one! (uk.youtube.com/watch)

No it hasn't been, you're right!  However many companies don't continue to spend money advertising an old product, they are ramping up the ads for the expansion and possibly because of WAR.  Although advertising for mmo's on TV is a large waste of money IMO, no measurable return; the community largely gets its info from the web or through peers.  I think their best way of pushing the game is through conventions and press releases about game features and such.

Yes because I bet they haven't done any research on it...

 

I think they should just take your expert opinion on the matter.
